NERFOfficial: Lazer Tag Phoenix LTX Tagger 2-pack - Fun Multiplayer Laser Tag Game for Kids & Adults, Ages 8 & Up (Amazon Exclusive)

As someone who grew up playing laser tag, I was a little skeptical when I saw these in my cousins play chest. However, my uncle assured me they were actually pretty good. 3 hours later, I was sore and tired from running around and playing! Needless to say that holiday I bought him 2 more so the whole family could play!Accuracy: These are very accurate and shoot a long distance (think playing in a medium to large front yard). They also have two modes, indoor and outdoor which impact the accuracy as well.Quality: They feel heavy and are sturdy! My cousin throws them in his toy chest and they’ve never had an issue.Game Play: Prior to starting the game you set the guns to team or individual and outdoor or indoor. This gives you several styles of game play means if you have multiple sets you can choose to play solo or on teams. When you start the game the guns beep as a count down, which gives you time to get into place. When the game start you have to shoot your opponents gun. After so many shots, a clip pops out and you have to push it back in to reload, which makes it feel “realistic.” You also have shield button that you can put up for a few seconds that allows you to block enemy shots. Your gun has a meter that shows you damage and once you run out, you’re done!Negatives: There are really only two negatives to these. The first is battery life, which is to be expected for any kids toy... If you play for a day, expect to change the batteries. The second is that you can only shoot the gun, which means if you put the gun behind you back you can’t be shot. This actually allows the game to be more accurate, as I’ve played with another major brand and it wasn’t nearly as good. However, you can’t shoot anywhere else on your opponent and have to aim for the gun.Overall, for the price these are awesome! They will provided hours and hours of fun!

An excellent toy for kids and grown-ups. There are only a few similar products available and this boasts better range, usability, and convenience.Easy to set up and play, intuitive controls, two-step reloading feature encourages tactics, programmable settings available through older LTTO taggers. The power switch lets you set "solo", "team 1", "team 2".The "you're hit" light is visible outdoors; usually in full sunlight you can still see it. In the woods or shady areas, it's obvious. This is a great feature and we didn't fully appreciate it until we tried other taggers that don't have this feature. However, when an opponent gets you it's difficult to hide!The grip angle and design is excellent for small or large hands because you can get a good high grip on the frame. The battery case allows for an alternative second hand grip if you hold it out in the air like where a rifle would sit.The built-in "iron sights" are mostly accurate. For normal play, it's good enough. An infrared-capable camcorder can show you exactly where the "dot" is landing. Adding electronic sights can be done with the official toy product (available used).The "recoil" and "you're hit" rumble makes it more fun to play with than non-rumbling taggers. When trying another tagger that didn't rumble, or when manually disabling the LTX's rumble feature (hold the back hammer when powering-on) it felt more "cheap" and "toyish".When playing, often the "ammo" and "strength" LED displays are ignorable. But it's nice to have them, especially at the end of the game, or to show off when you make it to the safe zone with 1 Health left! A note, if you are playing with 25 Health, the display will only show you the last 10 points.Older versions that are compatible with the LTX are the "Lazer Tag Team Ops" taggers (LTTO Deluxe, IRT-2X, Master Blaster Rifle). A newer version is the "LTAR" that was designed with a smartphone cradle. All of these are usable together and work on the same frequency. Also, hosted LTTO games can be joined by the Phoenix LTX. The LTX was also produced under the "Tiger" brand. Those older LTX taggers are fully compatible with the NERF version, but the old taggers may have a "team 3" setting, if the switch is placed between "1" and "2".The LTX originally came with a "Shotblast" attachment that makes it function like a shotgun: adding a pump-style reloader and two different cone-style LEDs emit a pattern doing up to 3 damage per shot. It's still available on the used market. However, the result is too front-heavy unless you add a stock. Recommend using parts from other NERF toys.In terms of aftermarket modifications, almost anything is possible. There is a lot of documentation available about the mechanical and electronic design of the product. However, make sure the result is still eye-safe! The best way to do this is to retain the original LED & lens arrangement. [See photo for an example.]

These laser tag blasters are great for many reasons.1. There are all in one in that you don't need to wear anything. The sensors are on top of the blasters.2. They simply work. The sensors are reasonably sensitive from 100ft+ away. Accurate shots truly register if the batteries are fairly fresh and blaster is clean and working (repair tip below).3. Inside or outside, night or day, regardless of weather or temperature...you can use them. They perform just the same.4. They are flexible. You can play 1 on1 or various versions of teams. There are options for solo, team 1 or team 2. If you have more blasters, you can play 3 on 3, 2 on 6, 5 on 5, anything. Consider buying at least 4 blasters.5. They are fairly sturdy. Don't drop them on concrete or leave them outside overnight, but with reasonable care they can last for years.6. The value of about $20-30 per blaster is worth it. For the reasons above your money is well-spent.REPAIR TRICKThe reload switches by your thumb can stick. Sometimes stick so much that the blaster becomes unusable. You just cannot reload or it is too difficult and time-consuming to do so. The plastic clip reload machinery inside the handle must be lubricated. There are a few great videos online showing how to take the blaster apart, lubricate and reseal. Give them a glance. If you catch the problem before it gets too bad, then there is an easier fix. Turn the blaster off, carefully unscrew the five black screws in the handle, open the handle enough to peak inside and see the inner components. Put some oil (wd40) on a cotton swab and carefully lubricate the two plastic components by the springs you can see. Then use that swab to lubricate and clean the reload switch on either side of the exterior handle. Test it out. In most cases you'll be able to reload as if the blaster was brand new. If it doesn't work, then take the blaster part like you see in the videos. The videos will show you exactly where to lubricate inside the handle.Note: We were not compensated in any way for this unbiased review. No one should be.

These things work amazing! I'm shocked how well they actually respond when shooting each other.And it's great exercise for my kids when stuck at home on cold and snowy days!

Buen si bien me gustaron, y ya tienia tiempo que los estaba analizando, preguntando, buscando, etc.Mi hijo y sus amigos se han esta divirtiendo en grande. Bueno tambien yo y otra amistad cuando jugamos con nuestros hijos. Los niños no le detectaron problemas.Pero nosotros los adultos vimos que de cuando en cuando falla un poco el disparo, y el receptor, es imperceptible para los peques o para alguien que no sabe de electronica y esas cosas. En lo general, resultaron tal y como los videos de otros usuarios mensionaron y como sale en los promocionales de la marca.Los recomiendo pues pasan un divertido momento corretiando y compartiendo al aire libre. Los prove con pilas estandar para ver que tan rapido se las comia, y para mi sorpresa despues de jugar con ella durante todo el dia, aun le queda bastante carga. Bueno aun no se le acaba la carga a las baterias, luego hare mis pruebas con recargables.

Great product & heaps of fun. My 8 yr old loves them.

Great toy. My grandson will love it.

Excelentes!!! Poco alcance pero para jugar dentr de una cas esta muy bien
